Three Continental Bronze Models of Canines

Circa 1930s, all likely French, figuring a single shepherd, the smallest of recumbent form, patinated bronze mounted atop a green marble terrace, signed 'A. Laplanche' for Albert-Pierre Laplanche (Dutch/French, 1854-1935); the second also recumbent, gilt bronze, unsigned, mounted atop a rose marble terrace (5 1.2 x 10 1/4 x 4 1/2 in.); the last in dark patinated metal, standing attentive, unsigned, mounted atop a triangular green onyx terrace with oval well (6 1/4 x 11 x 7 1/2 in.).

Overall good estate condition; some areas of rubbing to the patina and a few verdigris oxidation spots; stone with a few very small nicks.
